Supported HSM Cards
A Hardware Security Module (HSM) is made available on a PCI card that is known as HSM card. To use the functions of this module on a Web Gateway appliance, you must purchase an HSM card from an appropriate vendor and install it.
An HSM solution can be implemented on these Web Gateway appliance hardware models:
- WBG-5000-D
- WBG-5500-D
- WBG-5000-E
- WBG-5500-E
Skyhigh Security only supports the HSM cards in this guide. Installing supported HSM cards does not void the hardware warranty.
The following cards can be installed.
| Vendor | Type | Height |
|---|---|---|
| Entrust | nShield 500e F3 | Full |
| Entrust | nShield Solo 6000+ | Full |
| Entrust | nShield Solo XC Base F3 | Full |
For more information on working with a HSM solution, see the Hardware Security Module chapter of the Web Gateway Product Guide.
